'Fashioning Masculinities' examines the relationship between men and clothing from the classical age to 2022.
“It’s an exciting moment because the shift in perceptions around menswear and masculinity is happening everywhere from fashion houses to streetstyle, the red carpet to Instagram,” says Rosalind McKever, who co-curated the exhibition and edited the book along with Claire Wilcox. In addition to the timeliness of the topic, McKever believes that the Victoria & Albert’s vast and diverse collection made it uniquely suited to the task.
Along the way, the theme of each section is underscored by paintings, sculpture, ceramics, photography and other objects from the museum’s collection, and in the case of the book, dozens of short essays from museum curators, academics and fashion critics exploring the links between classical statuary and Marvel superheroes or Renaissance portraiture and hip-hop . The book also devotes more time to accessories, and the roles played by identity, history and geography.
